    Rejected!
    Requester Feedback: Thank you for taking the time to answer our survey. We appreciate your interest. Unfortunately, you did not correctly answer the attention check questions correctly, and thus were not provided a code.
    Pros:
    none
    Cons:
    unreasonable attention check! Requester is avoiding paying for work!
    You are supposed to remember the order of other questions on a different page.
    This is not in the spirit of an "attention check" It is unreasonable to expect someone to remember the exact chronological order of items on a different page especially when you are doing dozens of HITs and surveys everyday.


    Catchability: Impossible (HIT Last Seen: 18 hours ago)

    And when the survey had that image of a paragraph you were supposed to type, people would put it in the comments for everyone else to copy/paste. So bad lol

    I had to laugh when I saw my ACA options since someone mentioned it before, $770 a month with a 15k deductible for the cheapest plan, who can afford this?

    People who likely have a cheaper insurance option through their employer.

    TV points are made up
    And the ACs don't matter. :D

    (bad attempt at WHOSE LINE)

    I only mention them if it seems like there a ton compared to the length of the survey (like 4 ACs and a capcha on a six question survey)

    LOL. That's the one thing we can't offer. We have to have someone who is here keeping the office open so me and the boss can go do all the field work we're supposed to be doing but end up neglecting because we cannot keep a third, reliable employee!!

    For real. I may have to find another job if my boss retires and I can't get someone reliable. The business might close. Or I scale it down to what I can run on my own, but I'm unsure how I can do it alone.

    Wow. That's really high. Whenever I check mine isn't that high and I get some rebates.

    But I have private insurance that is grandfathered and while it is really expensive, I won't give it up. Kiddo is on his own plan that he can keep as an adult and I don't want him going on MediCal (the only option for him through ACA), so I keep paying those obnoxious premiums (higher than $700 for sure! It's in the 4 digits each month.)

    What about room and board? I can just like, crash with you, right? And all 4 of my fuzzies. 5 including my stray. +10 if I can bring my second stray, fox, opossums, skunks, and raccoons.

    The way insurance is done is really frustrating.

    I haven't seen it anywhere else yet, so I'm guessing it wil get rolled out later elsewhere, but definitely try it when you see it! The Plum Twist is stil my favorite, but it's winter seasonal and red bull takes it away too soon:emoji_sob: This is a fine replacement, tho! The summer seasonal one last year tasted like sunscreen and I'm glad they didn't bring it back.

    Hell YES!

    Kiddo should be off to college soon. You can have his room (he won't mind sleeping on the couch when he comes back, lol.)

    Or, I can look into converting my garage into a liveable space! Can't park in it anyway!!
